Phenomenal band name

The singles have been typically all over the place, with a hint at embracing some more cross over/broadening their appeal - expanding on Star Baby from their last full album (which was a banger)

Theo Bleak - Bad Luck is Two Yellow Flowers EP
Interesting Scottish songwriter, already onto her 5th EP or so. Delicate and lush indie folk, quite a lot of overlap with her fellow Scots No Windows I posted last week
FFO Skullcrusher, Phoebe Bridgers

Surprise Chef - Superb
Cinematic jazz/funk/soul from Melbourne. FFO BADBADNOTGOOD
The quintet’s distinct sound pulls from 70s film scores, the funkier side of jazz, and the samples that form the foundation of hip hop.

Cardiff based Queer folk protest songs. So so cathartic.
The song about digging up Thatcher to check shes still dead is a highlight. And what a VOICE.
Burn the Ladder - Angry, Tired!

Ben Frost - Under Certain Light and Atmospheric Conditions
Under Certain Light and Atmospheric Conditions is built upon two years of live shows, soundcheck improvisations, and field recordings. It is a 38-minute dreamspace of jet lag, melatonin supplements, roaring crowds, and failing technology.

Sofi Tukker - Butter
Looks like Sofi Tukker decided last year’s Bread was too dry, so they’ve added Butter. wise choice, imo. Poppy house.

On Caroline True Records, post-punk stuff from largely forgotten artists from in and around Powys and Shropshire.
